Another cracking bargain from eBay (£121.50 buyitnow), it's a paperback by the way,and from Deagol's website possibly one of the rare 10,000 issues of the first printing

Missed this part of the description "Our Team aims to provide customers with good value for money"

When posting on this thread, can you please put the salient point in the post for posterity, as the eBay auctions are only available for 3 months (I edited garm's previous post to include the ludicrous price and my previous post).

Just had to point this one out. I was unaware that such an edition was produced with "a black cloth like material laced with gold." Looks like someone wrapped em up in an old pair of Levis. At least the "books are in very good condition for their age!" Whatever the case, they make me cringe!

What about this one? Almost $9,000. Crazy price for a set of Easton Press books.

I know this has been on this thread before, but Beren I'll offer you 50 pence for the books in the picture, current price on eBay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/All-Books-J-R-R ... Books&hash=item2561b85c2f

I know that he has no rights to sell the eBooks, but I'd love to believe (in an ideal world, which we don't live in) that eBay could do something about this seller, and I am sure that I'll be very disappointed

Beren's books that I'm sure this eBay seller has no rights to use this image

Beren, I'll offer you one pound - and you can keep the Lewis books!
